For Sale Jackson, MS - 1977 FJ40

fountainhead · May 26, 2026

Reluctantly listing my 40 trail rig. This was my first foray into the 'crawler' world, and I wheeled her all over. I eventually ended up in a buggy, and, sadly, she's been sitting in the shop since. Seeing if anyone else might want to enjoy her as much as I did. There's a ridiculously detailed build thread here with all the info...feel free to peruse that late one night when you can't sleep. A few of the overall specs below:

'77 FJ40
Original 2f
H41 and Orion from @orangefj45
4.88's...ARB's front and rear
Original Longfields
Saginaw power steering
Redneck Ram ported steering box with assist ram
Rear disc brake conversion
37x12.50/17 BFG stickies with Allied beadlocks (have full matching spare somewhere)
Spring over on flipped FJ-60 rear springs on all 4 corners to extend the wheelbase about as far as I could using cruiser springs
All the spring over hardware from RuffStuff
Metal Tech full cage
IPOR skid plate
Fully rebuilt 8274
New battery
Fuel Injected using kit from AFI
PRP seats
Lots of other stuff I'm likely forgetting

Truck starts right up, even when cold. 2f sounds like a sewing machine. Steering is incredibly smooth and effortless. She's perfectly streetable, but I'd recommend a different set of tires if you wanted to drive her regularly. Numerous dings and rock rash from all the memories

. Please reach out if you have any questions...happy to chat about her.

Asking $15k OBO.

Cheers
